Friday, Fender Bender

 Well Hubs took off with his mom this morning and within 10 minutes I had a call from him, wondering what he forgot, and he told me he had been hit in the parking lot of the gas station. The police will not come when and accident happens on private property unless there is a bodily injury.

This is the third incidence of Hubs being hit in a parking lot and the other two times he did not get correct info or was lied to, and we ended up eating the bill.  So, as he was explaining to me that the girl who hit him had to go to work, I actually screamed, "STOP!"   I told him to grab two witnesses and keep her there until I arrived.

I made her call her insurance agent which happened to be the same company as ours and I sent hubs on his way in the truck. Both drivers' door and the passenger door are badly damaged, but the car is drivable. The only blessing out of this is that we had two small dings on the driver's door left by people who hit us in parking lots and now those will be fixed at no expense to us.  But I know hubs would have let her go and not gotten anywhere with info.  He does not have that capacity for confrontation. I felt bad for the girl as she was driving a big old Pontiac and it really wiped out our Subaru.

So, I have the whole house to myself, and I plan on doing a deep clean and a little sewing and then getting the ironing done tonight. No cooking, just eating leftovers.  Yeah, it is like a day off for me. I will miss mom; she was a joy to have this time. I called Hub's younger sister and told her I was worried about mom's breathing, and I thought maybe she should see her doctor. 

I want to get my shop cleaned today and some organization in there and then I will get a jacket done and work on one wedding dress.  The rest of the day will be doing what I want.  Mostly cleaning.  I have two boxes of costumes from the studio I used to own that the new owner dropped off.  I am going to try and sell them.  But I need to wash and dry them and then store them until they sell if they sell.  If not, I will donate.

Tomorrow, Signe' and I are driving to Spokane for some school shopping for Schmills, and she has theater tickets to a Broadway show at the colosseum.  SO, it will be a girl's day and night out, and I am badly in need of one of those.

I need to strip beds and get some laundry done.  I need to run to Walmart and get a couple of good storage boxes that mice cannot get in as these costumes were returned in boxes without lids.  I want to mop floors, and do a thorough vacuum, and clean out the fridge.

So, I have much to do and then I tell myself to go take a nap.

You guys doing anything fun this weekend?

Hmmm.... What will Kim do?

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
